More than a coop light

Thoughtful care for your hens.
Less work for you.

01 · YOUR HENS

Happy, healthy hens.

Lighting designed to support natural rhythms and well-being, with a gradual sunrise and time for nighttime rest.

02 · YOUR EGGS

Fresh eggs. Every season.

A consistent light routine designed to encourage laying as the days grow shorter, supporting your flock through the changing seasons.

03 · YOUR DAY

Effortless ownership.

SunSync manages the light schedule automatically, with small daily adjustments and no daily programming for you.

SOLAYE! automates the lighting—not flock care. Egg production and quality also depend on breed, age, nutrition, health and molting.

Let nature set the rhythm

A natural rhythm.
Adjusted every single day.

Daylight changes a little every day. Your coop’s lighting should too. SunSync makes small daily timing adjustments automatically, pairing a gradual morning sunrise with natural sunset and a consistent rest routine.

☀
A gentler beginning

Ease into the day.

Light gradually brightens over 35 minutes instead of switching abruptly from darkness to full brightness.

☼
Small daily changes

Adjust a little. Every day.

SunSync updates the lighting schedule daily as daylight changes, avoiding the larger timing jumps of weekly or monthly timer resets.

☾
When evening comes

Keep sunset natural.

Supplemental light is added in the morning, preserving the evening roosting routine.

Designed to supplement shorter days toward a 15-hour light period while preserving natural sunset. Morning lighting cannot shorten long summer days. Egg production also depends on age, breed, nutrition, health and season.

A complete approach to coop lighting

It’s how the light is delivered.

Timing is only part of the story. Light distribution, intensity, color and spectrum all matter to a thoughtfully designed coop setup.

Distribution

A continuous COB light line and silicone diffuser are designed to spread light through the coop and soften individual point sources. Position the line for the areas your flock uses before sunrise.

Intensity

A 35-minute rise in brightness creates a gradual morning transition, instead of an abrupt switch to full output.

Color & spectrum

Warm-white, high-CRI LEDs are part of SOLAYE!’s approach to a daylight-inspired environment for your flock.

Low-voltage design

The lighting side operates at 24 V DC. Use the supplied power adapter and follow the installation guide for placement and electrical connections.

Specifications supplied by the product team and LED supplier. CRI and R9 describe color rendering; they do not measure egg quality or establish UVB output.

Why morning light—and why this spectrum?

University of Minnesota Extension recommends adding winter light in the morning so hens can find their roosts before natural darkness. SOLAYE! follows that approach, with a gradual morning ramp and automatic daily scheduling.

Published laying-hen research has also explored how different spectra affect production and egg quality. Those studies support careful spectral selection, but they are not controlled trials of SOLAYE! itself.

Do I need to program a timer?

No. SunSync responds to natural daylight and makes automatic daily adjustments to the morning lighting schedule. There are no daily, weekly or monthly timer resets. Follow the installation instructions for correct sensor positioning.

Why do daily adjustments matter?

Daylight shifts gradually. Small daily changes let the lighting schedule follow that pattern instead of making a larger jump once a week or month. SOLAYE! also brings the light up gradually over 35 minutes.

Will the lights stay on all night?

No. The system adds supplemental light in the morning. It is designed to preserve natural sunset and a nighttime rest period.

Will my hens lay more eggs?

Supplemental light can support a consistent laying routine during shorter days, but results vary. Lighting is one part of flock care; breed, age, molting, nutrition and overall health also affect laying.

Does the light provide UVB or vitamin D?

UVB output has not been demonstrated in the supplied spectrum data. SOLAYE! is not a substitute for balanced poultry nutrition or appropriate outdoor sunlight access.

Why is the light warm white?

SOLAYE!’s selected 2700 K COB LED has a broad visible spectrum with orange and red coverage. Its high CRI Ra and R9 specifications describe how well it renders colors, including saturated reds.

Why add light before sunrise?

Morning supplementation leaves natural sunset intact so hens can settle onto their roosts before dark. SOLAYE! gradually raises brightness rather than switching straight to full output.

Is this a heat lamp?

No. SOLAYE! is an LED lighting system, not a heating product or a replacement for appropriate brooder heat.
